Hi Rafael, Sorry for my late reply. I added a copyright statement and license (GPL2 or later) to the files I wrote:
octcdf: inst/example_netcdf.m, inst/example_opendap.m (no copyright statement) optiminterp: inst/example_optiminterp.m (no copyright statement) This is fixed thus in octcdf 1.0.10 and and optiminterp 0.3.1. Thanks and regards Alex On Fri, Apr 18, 2008 at 2:49 PM, Rafael Laboissiere <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Several octave-forge packages have been updated to Debian unstable and are > waiting in the NEW queue [1] for ftp-master approval. > > In building the Debian packages, we found some licensing problems.
